Boards

At white heat a number of weeks ago I remarked to a friend how much I disliked 'indie kids', she said 'but aren't you one?'

This irked me. I think of 'indie boys' as listening mostly to terminally dull music made by white men with guitars. I may have the jeans and the occasional piece of striped clothing but I don't think i'm an indie boy, or perhaps i'm just in denial.

Always knew these boards were good for something. 6 hours since being dumped and it's looking good :)
I shall be at animal collective looking sad and frowny cause my ex will be there looking happy and not standing beside me.

i just get disheartened by stuff like this. there are a million people out there who just want to catagorise and marginalise and 'define' everyone for their own ends, and it annoys me to see people rushing to do it for them.

I think I'm an indie girl, and I like it. Obviously I don't fit every aspect of the stereotype, but I fit a lot of it. I like it when people come up to me and say 'you look like you like Islands/comics/animals'. I do. It's nice to 'belong'.
